$250 in dimes: 5 silver
'46D '47 '59D '61D '64D
I think buying these local-bank-wrapped dimes is equivalent to buying bags from their counter. Better boxes on average but more skunks if picking up someone's dump. I've had one box with 0, but two with 5 silvers. NF String boxes have yielded 0, 1, 2, and 3 silvers (each once). Hopefully I will be able to pick up a Barber a bit quicker this way; I am making sure to dump into an NF String bank to avoid diluting the pool.

Thanks. I've got two more $500 boxes of the four I got today. I'm hoping the other half of the original bag of the Motherload is on the floor in a box next to me. |

Why don't you send a box my way and I can check for more .
Barring that, be sure to take some pictures & post them if you encounter this phenomenon again.

I briefly thought of taking pictures, but I got too excited when I saw all those Franklins and Walkers. I got the silver fever - "Gotta open more rolls and give those silvers freedom right now."
If the 2ND Motherload box is found mext to me, I'll take some photos. |

Congrats.

SECOND MOTHERLOAD BOX HAS BEEN FOUND !!!
This box shows 1 roll with a Walker on the end and 1 roll with a Franklin on the end. I'm pretty sure this box is the second half of the "Motherload Bag". I won't touch this box until I get my camera batteries recharged.
